Etymology 2
From the female name Jill.
Noun
jill (plural jills)
- A female ferret.
- 1971 March, Fred Taylor, “How the English hunt rabbits”, in Field & Stream[84], volume 75, number 11:
- Below ground, in the maze of tunnels excavated by the rabbits over many, many years, five of our jill, or bitch, ferrets were running loose[...]. A white jill popped out of the hole nearest men slithered through the net mesh and disappeared down an adjacent entrance.
-
- In 1989 I obtained a hob from Curtis Price from one of my own jills mated to my own hob, for living as I do at the very edge of Britain it is not practicable to breed litters of ferrets to obtain a single replacement. Hence I lend out my best mated jills and receive a single ferret kitten from each litter.
-
- I prefer to use Jills on my ferreting jobs. All are fitted with transmitter collars, and I would never work a ferret without one. That said, I always make sure I have a large Hob ferret with me because sometimes he will shift stubborn rabbits where the Jills have failed.
